no, absolutely no need to let it ride and I am happy you have brought the two together as i was tired of them being on seperate threads
I will try to condense it as much as possible...........
Then, as now, I would not take the word of some guy saying they were staying with some woman fo the sake of the children but all the same needed a friend - luckily for me, my friend who is on this site and goes by the name of Bodleing, had been a friend of the guy in question for many years - he confirmed all my queries and they were further confirmed by another friend of ours, John, who had also known the people in question for at least 20 yrs. - this whole tale goes back to about 1976 when Haydn first came into all of our lives - Bodleing and John were already friends of my childrens father and I.
18 yrs down the line, after never involving myself in these things, I found myself alone and in at least monthly contact with the guy in question - I had picked up bits and pieces in these yrs but kept my own council as well as my distance - but the day came when we faced each other head to head so to speak, he knew my story cos they ahd all been business partners for so long (by this time)
so.......
I had split with my childrens father after lots of problems, probably the least amongst them was the night I saw him wrapped around Christine who I mentioned had been one of my good friends - and this is what I meant when I said I would never do this to anyone.............
Haydn and I got together as two very bruised and literally, 'battered' people who made each others lives bearable in the short time we had to give to each other.............
Drop Bodleing a line, he will confirm all I have said............
